That ending to the DLC (Spoilers)
Just beat the last dude and well... Idk, nothing was done to make it seem like "LOOK HOW FAR YOU'VE COME TARNISHED". I guess It really isn't tied into the main game, but still, I know ds3's Ringed City DLC had SOMETHING that felt like catharsis at the end?

Anyone else a bit flat note about it?

Yup. They retconned who Miquella's consort would be at the last second for no good reason, and didn't really explain why at all. The final boss is lackluster, and the random cutscene at the end feels sort of hastily cobbled together. Idk why the lore portion got done so dirty.

Idk, I like fighting the dude in his prime and how Miquella is debateably good or bad. Though I not a lore nerd who knows much beyond a few pieces. But overall, kinda left field Idk.

The cutscene just made me laugh so hard. What was the purpose of that?

Yup, it lacked the wow factor that Gael had for sure. And Radahn being mute the entire time was weird as well. Miquella only appearing at the end was weak, as was his entire role in the DLC basically, imo. That final cutscene was completely pointless because all it did was repeat what characters/the game already said earlier.

As a lore junkie, I didn't get the dopamine hit I was desperately looking for with this DLC. It was good, don't get me wrong, but I was expecting more after waiting 2 years.

How about the main game's endings all being 10 second cutscenes that show or explain nothing. This is OG No Man's Sky level of bad, especially as compared to Sekiro or AC 6.

The DLC ending was the clues you found along the way.

I highly doubt they'll do another DLC, but they did deliever. Just ashame that "end".

I'm praying to Zaki they add in new stuff to the end of the DLC in a patch. Like i literally did Saint Trina's quest for nothing

The ending is... Lackluster, I'll give you that. The bits of lore that we pick up on as we go along helps explain it, but yes, the fact you just see a memory of that D-bag and it's over? Lazy story telling by From IMO.
